Contract Expiry Information

Stay Aware & Save These Dates

There are certain instruments, particularly commodity and index CFDs linked to futures markets, that may have defined expiry dates.

On this page, Finowiz Prime provides clear guidance on how expiry works, which instruments are affected, and what traders should consider before holding positions close to contract expiration.

What Is an Expiry Date?

Some CFD instruments are based on pre-existing futures contracts and have a predetermined expiration date. When the date of said contract arrives, it may:

• Expire automatically
• Be replaced with a new contract (rollover)
• Require position closure before expiration

*Not all instruments have expiry dates.

Why Expiry Dates Matter in Trading?

Expiry dates matter because they directly impact the profitability of the trade. Traders can benefit from knowing when things expire:

• Stay away from unexpected job closures
• Plan how long trades will last better
• Change your plans before the contract rolls over
• Keep an eye on price changes during transitions

Expiration is a standard aspect of futures-based markets and doesn't mean that the market is acting strangely.

How Finowiz Prime Deals with Expiration

Finowiz Prime helps you communicate clearly about when your contract will end:

• Dates of expiration are made public ahead of time.
• Instrument specifications in MT4 and MT5.
• Notification from client portal.
• There are explicit rules for rollover.

Depending on the instrument, positions can be:

• Closed automatically before the end
• Changed to the next contract that is available
• Depending on the changes in rollover prices

We suggest that you look over the specifications of the relevant instrument before holding positions close to expiration.

Price Changes & Rollovers

When a futures-based CFD moves to a new contract:

• Prices may be different for contracts (end of one and a new one).
• Changes in contract prices might cause gaps in the market.
• Price charts from the past may change as needed.

Where to Look for Expiration Information

• Check the expiration information in the Contract specification area of MT4/MT5.
• Details about instruments in the client portal
• Official announcements about exchanging

Important Notice
